I'm looking for a HDMI cable...

When I got this cable, it came wrapped in bacon, which I thought was pretty weird, but shrugged it off, slid off my recliner into my Rascal, scooted from the living room to the kitchenette, and started cooking my bacon-wrapping.

 

As the smell of delicious pork back filled my double-wide, I turned around to look again at the box the cable came in.

 

Could this be? Yes! It was a "3 wolves barking at the moon shirt" and even better, it fit me perfectly (I wear an XXXXL).

 

So I yumplugged (get it, yum because of the bacon?) the crappy coax and component cables from my TV, and slapped in the HDMI golden cable between the visio and the blu-ray.

 

I was completely unprepared for what would turn out to be the best day ever.

 

I dusted off my....oh who am I kidding...I was already watching my "Mama's Family: season 1" Blu Ray (disc one). The magic began...

 

Once Vicki Lawrence appeared on screen, she broke character AND the fourth wall. She, and the rest of the cast jumped OUT of my TV, and performed the episode on my living room floor!!!!

 

Screw 1080P! This is way better. I thought to myself that having a 12" real-life "mama's family" cast was awesome. I wondered what would happen if I had a bigger TV...

 

Or better yet, used this cable to plug it into that giant TV screen they have at Cowboys Stadium!

 

Anyway, I was in for a further treat when I was watching a Betty White episode. Oh MAN!!! Could life get better?

 

I spoke too soon...

 

After enjoying some drinks with the mini-cast of "Mama's family" (my own mama left me all her Hooch in the will), we threw on the TV. I turned it on to family guy, and the same thing happened.

 

I was able to punch that Jesus-hating Peter Griffin and that smart-assed dog in their sacrilegious faces. Mini-Betty White even did a pile driver to Stewie.

 

MacGyver came on, and we all were in 7th heaven (and when 7th Heaven came on, it was EVEN Better).

 

I could go on and on about my day, but i'm gonna stop here. BUY THIS CABLE.

 

It could easily be the best $934.99 you ever spend...

correct me if I'm wrong but...

until now I was pretty sure any hdmi cable does what EVERY FRIGGIN OTHER hdmi cable does.. I was clearly in the wrong.

we have about 30 in a box in the garage, you can have all of them for free if you come get them.

For the typical consumer and in typical applications, you do not need any expensive HDMI cables.

 

However in cases where you have higher interference from external devices or when the cable needs to travel a long distance, this is where better HDMI cables shine. For the most part, HDMI cables that have better EMI shielding or better weather rating will fare better in the long run. I'm not saying cheap HDMI cables won't do, I'm saying they won't last as long.

 

Consider this as well, some cheap HDMI cables may not have their connectors tightly screwed on. It is possible that the connector may fall off if you apply too much force.

 

Back to troll mode,

 

We all know ExGBrian wants someone to buy him it.
